My settings are for Google search but bing keeps coming up, how do i get rid of Bing?
I've deleted it from search enginve options. Disabled Cortana. Searched for it on my computer but couldn't find it. The search engine says google but when I search it goes to Bing. When I search for Google and try that way the same thing happens. It only happens with Google and not with other engines like Duckduckgo. I would like Google back what do I do?

Hi Tufftie,
You probably already tried this, but just in case:

In Windows:
Are you sure that in 'Settings' you removed 'Bing' and replaced it with 'Google' ?
Type about:addons<enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control>(Mac=<Command>)<Shift> A)
In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select Extensions. Remove Bing Anything. Now do the same in the computers Programs Folder.
Windows: Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs. Mac: Open the "Applications" folder. Linux: Check your user manual.
Thank you but Bing is nowhere to be seen in these places. :)
I've tried then as you thought but thank you anyway. I can't find Bing anywhere - it must be hidden but whre??
Hi again Tufftie !
We're not just going to give up, let's try this:
'Add or remove a search engine in Firefox': http://mzl.la/1VShhHu
Now, let's see if this will work.
Good luck and please, keep us posted !
Hiya, I've tried this one too!! :)
Hi Tufftie, where are you entering your search?
- Inside Firefox, you have many options, including:
- the address bar (where the URL of the current page usually appears)
- the search bar (once you start typing, a small panel drops down with various search engine icons)
- a bar in one of Firefox's built-in pages, such as the home page or new tab page
- somewhere else?
- Outside of Firefox, for example, in the Windows 10 system-wide search box -- sometimes can be diverted from Bing to a different site but it depends on the exact code Microsoft puts into the URL.

Bummer !!!
Did this by any chance start after the Microsoft Anniversary Update ?

Hiya,
I don't want to be a pain in the you-know-where, but it took me hours and hours to finally find Bing in the Windows10-menu: it's well-hidden: you have to scroll down and scroll down some more and than scroll down even some more .........
If Bing keeps showing up, it has to be found somewhere !
Try again, just once more ? (I'll stop nagging about it, if you already have tried this, promise !)

Don't shoot, but I am just as puzzled as you are, so:
After you've done all of that again and again and you've reached the part where its says:
'search in the address bar with' ..........
Which search engine is mentioned there ???

When you are typing in the search bar, the top line of the drop-down usually shows where your search will be sent. If that indicates Bing, right-click the search engine you want to use and choose Set as Default Search Engine. (Example screen shot attached.)
Also, be careful where your mouse is hovering: if it moves over the icon for a different search engine, Firefox may use that one when you press Enter.
